You are a great mom… doesn’t matter how old the kids get you are setting them up for success… you are amazing ❤❤❤
Amen! I just can’t stop being mom
Jessica, you are a good Mom😊
Wow thank you
Jessica what you are during for Caleb is what I did for my son. He will appreciate are it. Also when we go to visit him in Illinois I will take him shopping to help him out. Our kids are getting started and it does not hurt to help them with life’s basic kitchen items. It’s how we love on our adult kids.
I love it thank you
The salt and pepper moose is so adorable
Right so cute
"care packages" ! I'd be sad if you didn't send him supplies! My two get stuff from me when they visit. Which is often! They don't ask, I ask if they would like whatever. Love your channel. Continued prayers for Wyatt and family. 🙏🙏
Exactly! Love it
You bless that boy! What a wonderful example of love. My son is only 10 yrs old but I’m going to totally do this for him when that day comes 😅
The boys love it you can see it in their face.
You are such a breath of fresh air . Thank you for sharing.
Thank you friend
Good job on setting Caleb off on a good foot! Take him a tablet and pen to start his grocery list. Our son scoffed at that suggestion but soon realized it was a must. All it takes is one morning to realize you are out of toilet paper and coffee.
Waiting to hear the MRI results if Wyatt feels like sharing. Greetings to your mom! Until our next visit….
❤ Momma G, who is nearly over the “shingles”!!
Great idea my mom had gotten done tablets and left them here.
Love you are doing the basic for him.❤️
Oh I wish I had a mom like you when I set up my first place!!!!!
Oh wow that’s so kind
Happy to see your Mom in this video, best wishes to you all and the cabin is great!!!
Thank you so much
Absolutely love the moose salt and pepper shaker stand. What fun!!
So cute
What a great place to launch from as a young adult
Exactly Aaron and I are like we would of never left!
Awesome video. Love love love the cabin, I would 100% live full time in it. You are such a sweet mum. 🌷🇨🇦❤️
Thank you it’s so cute!
Love the salt and pepper set! Enjoy watching the progress. Thank you
Thank you I thought it was so cute
Isn't it nerve racking when they fledge. He's a good boy, he's going to be OK. ❤ Good luck Caleb
It’s so hard but so far we see him constantly
Awwwww the salt and pepper is cute 🥰
Thank you so cute
Excited to see what else you for Caleb to make cabin comfortable and safe for him.
Me too we will work on it
How neat. Beautiful cabin. It's so fun getting things set up for your children 1st place alone. I've been sending "goody" boxes to my son in Texas.
LOVE the sound of the small planes going over. Miss that sooo much. My favorite is a Beaver on floatstyle. Such a deep powerful sound. My daughter, in while in highschool, fueled planes at Merril Field in Anchorage.
By the way I made the Jam Bars, yesterday...delish!!! Sending the recipe to my daughter and sister. Thanks. Have fun and good luck with the state bird😉
Oh I love that! So many good memories
Jessica love how you stocked up your son it must be a mum thing cos we did the same when our daughter mov3d out blesxings
Oh yeah totally a mom thing
WOW YOUR MOM SURE MOVES FAST!!! 😂 Sorry I just had to comment I’m sure you are just being respectful of her wishes but it was funny every time the video was running very fast. Your mom is a super hero! Ohhhh the squeak of styrofoam!!! 😂 love the moose salt and pepper holder gotta love kitchy cabin stuff! 🥰❤️😂🙏🏻🇨🇦
Lol! Yes it’s a balance. Setting up things for her to live “not” so off grid and hard, does require having someone young and strong live through it. That way when she is here full time, it will be a life she can handle.
That is a cute cabin. So nice to have options available when you need it. Thoughtful pf you to fill your sons pantry, good job mom👍
Thank you good friend. I tried to just start him everyone leaves next week and the water situation is starting soon. But that’s been an ordeal.
I just found your channel, and I love your talks and thoughts. As a single parent of 4 kids (they are grown now). I sort of know what you are going through. I love how much you love your family. I enjoy your channel. Ty for sharing! ❤
Thank you that’s fo very kind! And WELCOME!!!
Bullwinkle salt and pepper shaker! Score!
So cute!
Oooh I like the salt n pepper moose set❤
So cute
Such a good mom! Please let us know how the mosquito magnet works out. I’ve been trying to find a good solution. I’m like the all you can eat buffet at Denny’s for them😂
I will do that thank you
Grown up or not, you are such a great family and help each other. I love the moose ;)
Thank you! That’s such a huge compliment
About 10 yrs ago I used same jars n made spicex n set for all 8 of my kids
Nice
I'm with you had a lot going on don't worry we are with xxx
Amen! Living this life the best we can
Hi Jessica and sweet family! I know it gives your heart happiness to help Caleb get his home away from home set up.
I remember doing the same for my children. God Is Good!
I hope you all have a blessed day!
It’s such a special time for sure
That Moose S & P holder is so cute! The cabin is such a great "first place" to live on his own for Caleb. You guys are doing such a fantastic job getting it all cleaned up, and organized, for Caleb and the rest of the family. I am sure your Mom is beyond thrill with the cabin. Have fun, and God bless you all!
Thank you it’s just so cute
Would love to know how the mosquito magnet is working. We have a time with mosquitoes here too (Alabama)
So far not great. But they say to give it time
Still need Rice oats tea oil vinegar. Totally get it.
Moved out in eighties. We spent $300 then and only got the background ingredients. No major foods. Still had to do a normal food shop. But we did have salt coffee mop soap. FYI min wage at that time was 3.15 per hour.
Oh wow that’s a ton back then. I thought I would load him up some staples
48 degrees! Yikes! mosquito 🦟 magnet? Never seen one. In Florida I see lots of zappers. Would citronella torches or candles work? In NY when we camped deep on the woods we would spray ourselves and still get bit up. Where we are in Florida, when the sun sets, they come out. Caleb seems to be doing fine living there. His awesome mom prepared him well for living there. Jessica, I’m not a wimp, but 30-35 years ago Lisa could do it. Getting old stinks.
We had do much going it’s totally crazy! They are do bad!
We bought Yard Guard for when we camp and it works great…..we spray when pollinators are not flying around……I did my flower bed area because I’ve been stung , bitten and had a tick on me….I’m very allergic to bites. My brother came down with Lyme disease and was out of work for many months…he now has a autoimmune disease from the Lyme disease…..
I was bitten by assassin bugs and became ill for two months ( while working in my zucchini patch) I don’t grow it anymore…..I love nature but I won’t become ill because I didn’t protect myself.
It’s just so much!!!
These skeeters are no joke! Might jave to get me one or two of those magnets!
It’s so crazy!!!
Enjoyed the video
Thank you so much
I hit send too soon. That is a beautiful cabin and I love it
Thank you it seems truly special to us as you know living in Willow.
When my oldest son moved out I wrote him a cookbook of simple to prepare recipes of his favorite meals (he can cook but not like Momma) and supplied him with a full pantry and seasonings. Good is my love language and I didn't want him to get into the habit of eating junk food or take out. You did a great job setting Caleb up for success!
I love it such a great idea
here in MAINE the state bird is the black fly
Lol
How AWESOME to take your KID some supplies/care package. Y’all are awesome! It’s just like he was getting a housewarming gift. Hugs
Thank you that’s so kind
❤❤❤
🥰
Hi sweet one and Mama!!!! I love it when you get to spend time with your Mom!!!! That little cabin is so darling, and just perfect for Caleb. I know he appreciates all the help getting set up and getting rid of those awful mosquitoes!!! I can't wait to see what all you do to it!! Big hugs and many blessings!
Thank you so much he is such a sweet kid. He does truly show appreciation for the help.
Jessica, You are such a good Mom. The cabin looks really nice. I love the blue door. Calab is going to love his new place. I hope Wyatt is doing better. 🙏. Until next time. ❤❤
Thank you it’s so cute
The Cabin is just PERFECT ❤❤❤ Enjoying seeing it come together for your " baby boy " Caleb 😊😊 Always enjoy your videos Jessica!!!! Say hi to your Mum 😁 Love from the UK x
Thank you friend! I appreciate you so much.
I just discovered your Channel and look forward to following this journey. We are also going off grid in the Willow area and are starting to document it. There is a lot to learn ... good luck!
Thank you so much! If you bump into us say hello! Abs Welcome to the channel
@@modernhomesteadalaska will do!!!
How cute the salt& pepper Moose looks. Hope Mom is having a wonderful time. Enjoy your Family time
Sooo cute
Wether he is an adult or not I absolutely love that you helped him set up his first place! I wished my parents did that. I know I will with my kids
It’s so much fun for me I’m not 100% sure he cares. Lol
The cabin is beautiful. I remember when my sons move me packing a little of everything for them 😊 Jessica how is the mosquito trap working ? they are soooooo bad because all this rain 🌧️ I have like 100 bites 😂.
Oh nooo it’s ok right now our neighbor has one that works great. I’m wondering if the cabin might have just a bit to much water
Harvest gross bag full of carrots n canned got 7 qts

Where is your oldest son

Are you doing ok? You sound really out of breath and like it is hard for you to breathe in.
I have an issue with my lungs but I don’t notice it.
I could never live in Alaska!! The only thing I am allergic to is penicillin and mosquito 🦟. Bloodsuckers!
Oh yeah that’s crazy!
@@modernhomesteadalaska my eyes would be swollen shut!
@@carolynmills513 it’s so bad here but only fir a short season. But if that’s the reaction don’t come here in summer.
